"The call initially came in from someone at a neighboring property who had reported that they heard the gunshot, and they believed a man had been injured at the property that was next to theirs," said Trooper Stefani Plume.

The suspect -- identified as Lee Atwood, 54, of Irwin -- said he didn't do it as police were taking him away in handcuffs Tuesday afternoon.SLIDESHOW: Photos from the crime scene

Police believe Williams, of Yukon, knew his shooter. Neither Williams nor Atwood lived at the home where the shooting happened, police said.

"It started out as basically a verbal and then physical altercation between two males. Shortly after the physical altercation that took place at that residence, the male was then fatally shot," Plume said.

Plume added Atwood apparently tried to collect a debt from someone else at the residence. The criminal complaint stated Williams and Atwood got into a physical fight following Atwood's demands for money.

The criminal complaint said Atwood was armed with a handgun and a shotgun. Police collected bags of evidence that they gathered from the crime scene. They also used witness testimony and descriptions to help make the arrest.

Atwood is charged with first-degree murder, aggravated assault and recklessly endangering another person. His preliminary hearing before District Judge Chuck Moore is scheduled for Aug. 28.
